Top pick: #11 (AQUADILLA) - Daughter of "Stormy Atlantic" debuted at Saratoga in a sprint August 9 and had some early traffic issues before racing evenly. Good barn (Mike Matz) brings her back quickly and stretches her out in distance. The top pick.
2nd pick: #7 (Mankai Blossom) - She set a solid pace last out in an "off the turf" contest and is brought back quickly for this turf attempt. Filly should have gotten some "bottom" out of that and should set her up for a big effort today.
3rd pick: #2 (Lily of Johar) - Debuting filly is in a barn (Kevin Boniface) that specializes in turf horses and this daugter of "Johar" has been prepared off-track at Bonita Farms.
